John 12:26
Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.
It is a joy and a great feeling of accomplishment to be honored. It is good to feel appreciated especially when we know that we sacrificed to earn it.
Jesus desires our love and service. When a very rich young man asked Him how to inherit eternal life he was told that after giving up his earthly attachments he must also choose to follow and serve Jesus.
Earthly honor is good but it can never be compared to the honor received from up above. The honor of God, our Father, is the greatest honor we will ever receive. This honor is bestowed on us when we are serving Jesus.
May we continually seek to serve our Lord Jesus today.
